If it is an small accidental amount it might be posible to remove it with absorbent socks available from west marine or anywhere that they sell contamination mitigation supplies. The well would have to be big enough in diameter to accept the sock and it would have to be something like a fuel can fell over in the pump house type of accident. This is not likely to remove 100% but a very high percentage can be recovered like that. If it is leaching into the well from some other source it is not likely that a long term permanent solution is viable. There are also enzimes avalable that can aid the process but once things are completed you would need to test the water.
